My summer went by pretty fast, but I still have one month before school. I'm excited because it's almost my birthday and I get my puppy! But mostly I've been staying at home, going outside, going to birthday parties, and playing with my lil' sister.

I go back on August 15th too! I'm sad Summer is almost over. This Summer was really good, and bad. I didn't get many mosquito bites. Now I have to wait a whole other year until Summer comes again. *sigh*

Aww, you're lucky! My school ended on May 24th and is going to start on August 15th. I guess that's called a long Summer break. But my idea of a long Summer break is 180 days, because we have 180 days of school.

On the first four weeks of summer, I went to summer camp. Drawing week, painting week, scuplture week, and dragon week. My favorite was dragon week. My dragon week sculpture is somewhere on the Artwork part.

The next week Friday was my birthday. Like every other day, exept for cake and presents. I got a Sodastream machine which lets you add hydrogen bubbles to water. then you have to add the soda flavor.

The next few weeks' days consited of visits to the library to get books, reading books, going here, feeding the fish and the tortoise, taking the tortoise to the beach, and going on walks or to stores.

Then we went on a four hour drive to SeaWorld, Universal, and Busch Gardens. SeaWorld was great, although I only got to ride Manta one time because the stupid lady didn't let me on the second time on acount of my height. And get this! I went to SeaWorld last winter break too, and a lady didn't let me on last time either. I belive it's the SAME LADY. I went on it other times because I'm only an inch too short and the other people didn't notice. SeaWorld also has this awesome octopus in the Manta aquarium.

Universal was ok (it kept raining) and Busch Gardens was awesome. BG is my favorite theme park. I went on Cheetah Hunt like 4 times and one time on Montu. I went on Scorpion last time I went, but it shakes too much. I saw an ostrich egg (an an ostrich) when I was riding the train around the big animal habitat they have there. Skyride was closed and it kept on opening for like 5 minutes at a time. >:-(

After we went to Busch Gardens, I did/am doing before the theme parks. Have I mentoined I go to them a lot because of the anual pass?

I am going to be one week late for school because we have to go to Washington for something. After that were going to visit my mom's friend while we're there.

Anyway, that's my summer. we've been waiting for it all year and now the cycle starts over again until we hit college and get a job.

i went with my grammy, mom, and sister in Great Wolf Lodge in PA. it is a HUGE indore water park, big arcade, outside pool, hotels, and it has over 300 rooms! it has alot more..best. hotel. of. my. life. i got a feather for my hair there, a wolf stuffed animal, and a t shirt! my hotel room was huge and it was only 100+ dollars! we ate at a diner for dinner. after that we went to a smaller hotel. it was small but had a flat screen tv, a pool, a hot tub, and other stuff. we went horse riding for an hour in a trail in a woods. my horses name was Hoss and it reminds me of a resturont called Hosses. we went to friendlys for dinner. a guy came up to my table and asked us if we wanted a balloon. i said yes. my sister asked "is it a regular ballon or dogs and stuff?" he said "the 2nd one." i said "what do you make? he replied syaing so many stuff so fast that i could not understand him he made my sister a sword, my other sister a dog, and i got an alien brain sucker. (you wear it on your head and there is balloon alien on the back.) he could make anything! stuffed bears (these are all balloon animal stuff) with them holding a heart, a lazer blaster, (it made a lazer noise when you would rub against a part) and more! he said the biggest thing he has made was a copy of the big ben. he has been making these stuff for 37 years! so interesting! we went to a carnival and i played a balloon pop game. i had to play it twice though to get a toy. the first game i got three balloons popped, then on the 2nd game i only got one balloon popped. i got a toy pikachu! when i went home i watched a new futurama and went to bed. at the GWL (great wold lodge) i got a jackpot on a game and got 750 tickets. i put my tickets together with my sisters and got 2,359 tickets together. i got a stuffed bear, a stuffed snake, and cool sun glasses. that is what happend about 2 days ago.
